The snorkeling conditions in Cabo San Lucas are great with the chance to see brightly colored fish, fascinating sea life and healthy coral in the clearest blue waters.
You can book a tour or go snorkeling without a guide to see the colorful fish, nice reefs and other creatures in the sea.
Los Cabos covers the entire resort area at the top of Mexico’s state of Baja California Sur. This southern part of the Baja Peninsula is where some of the best snorkeling can be experienced.
It includes Cabo San Lucas township, San Jose del Cabo and the stretch of ocean that links the two places. Locals often say Cabo, meaning anywhere that is part of Los Cabos or Cabo San Lucas.
We can break the best snorkeling spots into three areas as follows with the chance of seeing a manta ray being possible!

The quiet beauty of Chilean Beach is alluring and it’s just as pretty on the sand as underwater. Dive into the azure-colored water and swim around with your snorkeling gear, allowing you to see and breathe just like a fish.
The water is clear and clean.
There is usually a lifeguard on duty and bathrooms with showers. This beach is also popular with snorkeling tours which will come into the shallow waters by boat to see crabs, tropical fish, starfish and sometimes stingrays and sea urchins.
Land's End
For a different scene, try Land’s End. As the name hints, it is at the end of Cabo and features bold rock formations coming out of the water.
Another wonderful part of this beach is the sea lion colony that is normally soaking up the sun or swimming in the warm water. Amazing to admire but don’t get too close as they can be territorial.
You might also see pelicans that are so abundant there is a rock named after them.
Around Pelican Rock, the snorkeling is fantastic and also around Arch Rock (El Arco) nearby. Look out for Neptune’s Finger, which is between El Arco and Lover’s Beach.
